Usefulness of CT-lymphography in sentinel lymph node navigation.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThere are many methods for sentinel lymph node (SLN) navigation. The methods using radioisotopes and blue dyes are performed mainly for the identification of SLN. Our current method for SLN biopsy is a combination of three techniques with 99mTc-phytate, patent blue V dye, and preoperative CT-lymphography (CTLG). PATIENTS AND
methodsIomeprol (Iomeron®) as a water-soluble contrast agent is diluted twofold with 1 % lidocaine and intradermally injected into a few sites (2-5 ml at each site) around the tumor. After the injection, CT imaging is performed using a 64-row MDCT system (Siemens SOMATOM Definition AS+). We performed CTLG in 34 patients (16 men, 18 women) between September 2008 and March 2013.
resultsCTLG clearly visualized the SLN and the lymphatic drainage in 21 out of 34 patients.
conclusionsWe can detect the SLN and lymphatic flow near to tumors without shine-through effect, especially in the head and neck regions. It is thought that CTLG may be useful to determine the range of lymph node dissection.
